Alcance y aplicabilidad

This standard applies to the quality control of upholstered furniture and furniture upholstered components. It categorizes products into three flame resistance levels based on typical usage scenarios, ranging from domestic households to public entertainment venues and hospital wards. Manufacturers of soft furniture and upholstered parts must comply with these safety specifications.

Requisitos técnicos

The standard classifies flame resistance into three mandatory tiers. Tier I requires that no smoldering or flaming combustion occurs after a cigarette ignition source test, typically applicable to household environments. Tier II requires resistance against a simulated match flame ignition source, targeting general public premises. Products passing higher-tier tests are deemed to comply with lower-tier requirements. Tier III introduces a more stringent requirement utilizing a wood crib ignition source, specifically designed for high-risk public facilities such as nursing homes, hospital wards, and public entertainment venues. The standard defines strict criteria for ignition, including progressive smoldering, flame spread to specimen edges, and detectable smoke, heat, or glow within specified timeframes. Any observable ignition phenomenon during the designated evaluation period results in a failure for that specific tier.

Métodos de ensayo

GB 17927-2024 outlines three primary testing procedures corresponding to the ignition sources. The Cigarette Ignition Test (Annex A) evaluates resistance using a specified smoldering cigarette placed on flat surfaces or crevices. The Simulated Match Flame Test (Annex B) uses a butane gas burner to replicate a match flame for a short duration. The Wood Crib Ignition Test (Annex C) employs a standardized wooden crib assembly with ethanol to simulate a more intense, prolonged heat source. All tests require strict environmental preconditioning and precise observation periods to determine if ignition occurs.
